Who Do You Think Our Next Big Signing Is ??

A forward like Sika Manu or JWH for next year and beyond would be great.

Sam Williams and Chad Townsend both are not playing first grade at the moment but have shown when given a chance they are good halfbacks who will only improve with more first grade experience. One of these guys would be great either for 2013 or even a mid season transfer.

Since Willie is off the table I'd like to see us sign either Evarn Tuimavave or Shane Shackleton mid season since they are both on the outer at their respective clubs.

I'd even take a look at either Michael Dobson from Hull KR or Scott Dureau from Catalans for 2013\. Both have shown in Super League that when given a real chance at halfback they can excell.
 
With groat and woods coming along the way they are I don't think we need to spend big money on a prop. I would be looking at a second rower and another winger. Not high price. But I would want to secure some of our under 20s looking to the future e.g Rudolph, koribete, sironen, Moses and santi

John Morris was one of the best passengers the Wests Tigers ever signed. Please tell you are kidding TigerTime :bash

250k+ Is the touted figure. Every player out of that system comes at overs (excluding the players they bring down as filler Lowe Norrie etc.)

We really do need to figure out the halfback slot soon. I would love to see us offer Chad Townsend a contract if we are not going to give Miller a go and Moltzen does not improve in the next month

Halfback looks to be the biggest problem at the moment. If only Moltzen had Lui's ballplaying ability and kicking game, things would be sweet. Hopefully he shows improvement soon, for his own sake.

We already have the talent Smeg, we just need someone to teach them how to play and develop. Hard to do when your forwards are getting walloped!
 
Need an organising halfback better still 2 organising halfbacks. Someone young like Townsend and an older guy like say um Cronk.

I think it could be sika manu.

I like Sika as a player but he may not be worth the price tag he would command.

Plus before Blair signing I had my doubts about how long it takes Storm players to adapt away from such a regimented system. I still carry those doubts

How much would he be asking do you think?

Always rated him and think he would be a great buy. Strong, aggressive, good defender.

I would be happy if we signed Manu and a halfback, that is all we really need.

Get rid of some deadwood, sign two quality players and fill the rest of the empty positions with younger options (like Koroibete for example) and further down the track Sironen etc.

We need a quality 1, 6, 7, 9\. Tedesco is obviously the plan for 1, but the 7 is the big issue.

You still have to think Miller is the plan I don't think they made him skipper of the NYC side for the sake of it and maybe they are concerned he wasn't quite ready for NRL just yet

Yep
Miller is the NYC Captain for good reason.
The Tigers big bosses see his potential and his (current) flaws.
Maybe 2012 but I think 2013 Miller will be our next Prince!

We need to replace Ellis that is who our next big signing should be - cant believe all the drama about we need a half back give Moltzen a bit longer than 3 weeks to reach his potential and in thee mean time Miller is maturing if Moltzen doesn't cut the mustard after a fair gol

I'd be pretty stoked if we could sign up the top players from the Balmain SG Ball side. It's got the Wests SG Ball side of the early 2000s written all over it.
 
Shaun Berrigan hasnt played at the Tigers yet?

I know Joel Monaghan is keen to return to the NRL?

I reckon we sign Sam Kasiano. Having a great 2nd year and is a future SOO Rep!

Balmain SG Ball have had the easiest draw in the history of the game and besides having juniors in our NRL team is not our policy.

No it's not… Just ask Robbie Farah, Aaron Woods, Liam Fulton, James Tedesco, Chris Lawrence or even Bryce Gibbs, Dene Halatau etc etc. Local juniors never play NRL for us...

Have you seen the Balmain SG Ball team play? Yeah it's a good draw but they put the cleaners through St George last start who are hardly easybeats.
